Black Veil Brides is in Love With Me?!

Chapter 3: Happy birthday, now get out

(*A/N* Summer is almost over and Jade's birthday is coming up)

*Jade's P.O.V*

I woke up to yelling, like normal. I looked at my phone.

August 21st.

"Yay! It's my 16th birthday!"

Jake Pitts and I share a birthday, which is fucking awesome. I went on Twitter and wished him a happy birthday, mentioning it was also my birthday. I then locked my phone and hesitated to go downstairs. I decided to shower and get dressed before going downstairs. I slowly crept down the stairs and was greeted by both of my parents in the living room.

"Hi." I said nervously.

"Happy birthday, shitbag." My mom said.

"Get out!" My dad said.

"What?" I asked, confused.

"We are kicking you out." My mom said.

My eyes widened.

"What?" I said, surprised.

"We hate you and we've had enough of you. Pack your things and leave." My dad said.

"What? Where will I go?" I asked, tearing up.

"I don't know and I don't care." My dad said, getting up and pushing me upstairs to pack.

"You could stay with one of your friends, if you had any." My mom said, laughing.

"Ha! Good one, Lory!" My dad laughed too.

"What the fuck! You're actually kicking me out?!" I said, outraged.

My father stopped and I turned to face him.

"You can either pack your shit and leave or we will make you leave without your shit!" He said, firmly.

I ran upstairs and started packing my clothes and belongings. I brought my school backpack, a big suitcase, and my bass with me downstairs.

"Goodbye, piece of shit and don't ever come back!" My parents screamed and slammed the door.

I stood outside for a bit in shock before walking to the playground. I sat in the play area and cried.

My phone buzzed in my pocket and I took it out.

"@JakePittsBVB: @Jadelovesbvb Haha! Happy birthday to you too!"

I smiled at the tweet and then put my phone away. I sighed, not knowing what to do. I sat and waited for the sun to go down. I ended up staying up, paranoid something was going to happen to me. I watched the stars and moon and daydreamed for a bit. I fell asleep a couple times but caught myself and stayed up. I watched the night melt into day and then day melt into night and so on. I walked around town a little bit, trying to find someone, anyone. I sat at a few corners begging for money or food or something.

I walked around the corner and sat down, a cardboard sign in my hand.

'Homeless teen, Anything helps.'

"What am I doing with my life..." I thought one day.

I tried getting a job but because I'm underage, I need working papers. I can't get those without parental consent, so I'm screwed.

A person came up to me one day and handed me two concert tickets.

"Hey, I saw your shirt and I have these tickets. I can't use them because I'm going out of town. Enjoy the show." The person said.

"Thank you so much." I said.

They walked away and I walked under a bridge and sat down. I examined the tickets more closely.

'Black Veil Brides' playing April 21st.

"Oh my god!!" I said out loud.

Two tickets to Black Veil Brides!! They were all access passes so I can meet them too. It's for April though so I have to wait a bit. I continued walking around town a bit to see if I can get food. I decided to take my bass out and pluck the strings. I didn't have my amp so it was barely audible but I could hear it. I messed around a bit, stumbling along the strings. I had only been playing bass for a few months, so I was no expert. Some people here and there would throw change at me. I saved up enough money to buy some food and water. I then walked under a bridge to eat. I had some time to myself to think about my life so far.

"Well, a couple weeks ago, my parents kicked me out. I've been living on the streets since then. I've just now gotten enough money to buy food. I have two tickets to see Black Veil Brides in April. School starts in about 3 days. Am I even going to school? Well, I can get free food. They'll probably let me shower and stuff too, cause they have showers in the locker room so that could work. Maybe I could leave my stuff there too... Can I live at school? Woah! Is this where my life is at where I actually want to be at school?! What the actual fuck... Ugh, people are looking at me. I should go."

I got up and walked back to the playground. That was my new unofficial home. Nobody bothered me there. Every so often, some dudes showed up and smoked drugs but I let them be so they left me alone. I sat down and watched the world around me.

"So this is what it's like without technology? Or shelter, or food, or anything really?" I said, talking to myself.

I admired nature for a bit and then got bored so I fell asleep. I was more comfortable sleeping there, although I was still paranoid someone was gonna take my stuff. I smelled like shit though so nobody would want it probably. Who would want some emo girl's stuff? I drifted off, and then remembered school was tomorrow.

"Fuck."
